March 17-31, 2026

The Trans Rights Readathon is an annual call to action to readers and book lovers in support of Trans Day of Visibility (TDOV) on March 31st.

We are calling on the reader community to read and uplift books written by and/or featuring trans, nonbinary, 2Spirit, and gender-nonconforming authors and characters.


As before, I would like to request that people shout out their favourite eligible books in the comments!

My mother died a few weeks ago, so amongst other duties, I'm donating some of her items - mainly clothes, though I did include a box full of books to the Epilepsy Foundation. So it's seven bags of her clothes (Four to EFMN, Three to Ridwell), one teddy bear from Valentines Day donated also in a box, and the aforementioned box.

Edit if I haven't mentioned it: We sold the Buick. :)

Look: not to say that I agree with the our Idiot PM or with his maybe-ally (I decidedly don't), but clearly the Europeans have learned nothing from their history. At all.

To say that something is Bad just because it breaks the law is... yeah. There is an Israeli saying on the matter of people who obey laws because they are laws, and I'm sure every Jewish person around here is thinking about the same historical example right now.

If the law is dumb, you change the fucking law. Humans wrote it and humans can change it. It isn't sacred. Breaking the law does not in itself make anything bad, and a hell of a whole lot of evil had been done as a result of that sort of thinking.

But Europeans be Europeans, apparently.

(Re; I'm sure this quote can be found in language other than Hebrew, too.)

I beat Dark Souls, AMA

[ID: shot of my character from the back as she looks into the blasted ruins of the Kiln of the First Flame. She is wearing mismatched red and yellow clothes and a silver helmet, and holding a halberd.]

And it only took 8 months, and a number of hours I will not disclose. Though, to be fair, since I unexpectedly got into the multi-player, a lot of the total hours actually represent me reading a book while waiting to be summoned.

Dark Souls is slow, janky, eccentric, flawed, wilfully obscure about some of its mechanics, and one of the best games I've ever played. I am in love. Ask me anything.
